Comments
Atk is a central signaling molecule in the PI3 Kinase pathway and is associated with cancer cell invasion. Saji et al. reported that nuclear Akt1 initiates distinct downstream events sufficient to induce cell migration. They identified a conserved nuclear export signal in the kinase domain (AA 272-284), which may contribute to the regulation of Akt1 localization. The mechanism of Akt1 nuclear import is still unknown.

User Input
Accurate identification of NESs is difficult because many sequences in the genome match the NES consensus. Therefore, some published NESs may be mistakenly identified. Please help us improve the accuracy of NESdb by providing either a positive or negative flag for the NES in this entry. Supporting comments are required to process the flag.
